EPL 2015/16 - Week 20

West Ham v/s Liverpool - Draw
Arsenal v/s Newcastle - Home win
Leicester v/s Bournemouth - Home win
Man Utd v/s Swansea - Home win
Norwich v/s Southampton - Draw
Sunderland v/s Aston Villa - Draw
West Brom v/s Stoke - Away win
Watford v/s Man City - Draw
Crystal Palace v/s Chelsea - Home win
Everton v/s Spurs - Away win

Van Gaal is the manager under pressure at the moment after a terrible December spell. However, the Red Devils' last draw against Chelsea bears hope that the team is picking up the pieces and on its way to a more favorable spell. I think the visit of hapless and manager-less Swansea is an auspicious one for them to start a winning run although they have been beaten by the Swans in their last 3 league encounters. I see Old Trafford getting some buzz back on Saturday.

For Arsenal to win the title, they have got to put away struggling teams like Newcastle. Sure they still are missing a few key players but they have enough quality to grind out a result against Steve Mc Laren's side. Ozil is involved in most of the Gunners goals and the Magpies will need to stop him to get a result. Thing is, he's one of the most intelligent players out there to get into space and make the through pass. Although they are on a good run, I cannot see Newcastle coming out with something from the Emirates and this should be a straight win for the home team.
